Isn't that how Reese's was invented a truck with chocolate crashed with a truck full of peanut butter. Perhaps squid-broccoli will be the next culinary fusion. Hershey's should jump on this opportunity.]]>

Under "Links we like", at the bottom of the article, it (currently) says:

"Don’t get suckered into spending more cash than is necessary to fix your car. "

Erm, exactly.

@piet; @Clive
From Wikipedia:
Greenfield, CA is a) nicknamed the broccoli capital of the world and b) "In recent years, the town has seen a massive influx of immigrants". Therefore, migrant workers who can pick broccoli 8 times as fast.

@everyone else
These are obviously shock troops for Cthulhu (the very definition of a terrorist) and the threat level should be raised to red.

"crews were still clearing the squid that had slipped into the field"

After reading the head line my mind naturaly thought the first sentance should be,

"After the chaotic event the police are waiting for things to simmer down."

@ Piet,

"This is scary, doesn't the government keep a database on all squid-related movements in the country"

Oh dear does that have a second meaning or what, and opens up a whole other sub-plot...

Especialy as Bruce has posted about Government related organisations investigating sewer contents to see what people had been ingesting (and if it was illegal or not) in the past...

I believe you have a truism / joke in the US along the lines of,

"Why are congressmen always making motions in the house?... Because they are full of it!"

What concerns me is the threat any escaped squid pose to critical infrastruture.

Recommendation to USCYBERCOM: Cook all squid at port of entry.

"It is unclear where the truck carrying the squid was coming from or headed."

This is scary, doesn't the government keep a database on all squid-related movements in the country?

The article states: "It is unclear what caused the crash."

It's obvious what caused the crash. The squid wanted broccoli and took over the mind of the driver. Duh.

Sure, but he still needed to lay down in that field and take a breather.

I guess I would have made up a headline with the squid crashing into a field of onions and sunflowers (don't you like your squid deep-fried with onions?), so no I wouldn't be making up the headline about the broccoli. Somehow they just don't go together. =)

BTW, thanks for the enjoyable side-trips on Friday Squid Blogging. Some of the funniest comments I've read on this blog are in response to squid articles!
